Stiff upper lip

You have seen the lovely ladies whose lips enter the room a week before they do.

It is an extraordinary thing where women feel the need to make their lips look more like their labia majora. More peculiar still when there is a perception that big is best.

Only, as usual, the Confused One seems onto something more subtle.

and we can’t have that can we.

So would the injection be a way of hiding the insecurity.

Of course it is. Why else would people maim themselves is such a horrid way.
